Scary!

If Draw would only support Rect, Text and Image, it sounds like a lock-out of HW accelerated vector graphics. Is this really your intent?

At this moment, it is just opinion, not intent Smile

And, if that happens, it would be more likely "obsoleting", not removing. Or maybe saying that basic Draw is not required to implement those or something like that.

All things considered, I would say that the basic level provided by Draw is simply unsufficient for anything serious and good looking by today's standards - but if you move beyond that, you would find that there is little HW acceleration possible for 'fine' 2D.
